And I thought I was doing so well. I suppose this is part of the grief cycle. The breeder called and said she had a new litter in December and that the babies would be able to go in March. I told her I couldn't even entertain the thought of looking at a picture of another baby right now. Is that crazy or what? Especially when most of you say that another baby would ease the pain. I just don't know. My 12 year old daughter still cries when we mention Tinkerbell and I overheard my 3 year old talking to one of her dolls and saying that God was "naughty" for taking Tinkerbell away. That broke my heart. But how do I console them when I am so sad myself?

Mia, I am so sorry to hear that things are still so hard for you. I know how you feel. I myself am up tonight still crying my eyes out for my Maddie. I wish there was something to say, but there's not. There's simply nothing you can do but grieve. I don't have children so I cannot imagine what you're going through. I know they must be devastated. I saw this website
http://www.homevet.com/bonding/loss.html that may be able to help (I've been reading them for myself). If you scroll down, it has a few pointers with helping children deal with the loss of their pet. Saying a prayer and hugs for you all.
